Yep. That's what I was afraid off. Fit is a little to tight for my likes.

I cracked a seat last year due to the reel being too wide.

Go to grinder it's to wide and to thick. Split to seats using the tighten up method.

I used a dremel tool. It worked great.

Didn't even think of the dremel. That's the answer! Thanks slablife!

Used my dremel to reshape front prong of reel foot. Narrowed the prong by about 1/4 inch and thinned it by about 1/16 inch. Fits perfectly. Tightens down like they were made for each other. Took about 5 minutes per reel, and burned up 2 stones.
